They seem to have some crazy overlay tourneys ($200k and $250k guaranteed) with $200+15 entry fees, so for those of you with the bankroll for those kinds of tourneys, it might be worth checking out before PokerNow thinks better of offering these prizes. <\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m only about 28% done with the signup bonus clearing, so I can&#8217;t report on how well the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.frequentflopper.com\/\">rebate program<\/a> works, but I&#8217;m sure it&#8217;s fine. On the positive side I&#8217;ve actually had multiple winning sessions, which I attribute to good cards, bad players, and a better attitude about my game after last weekend&#8217;s trip to the Oaks. Actually I think I have a better attitude about life after last weekend, even though things are more or less where they were before I left. It&#8217;s good to get away.<\/p>\n<p>This weekend marks the final weekend of the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.commercecasino.com\/tour_schedules.htm\">LA Poker Classic<\/a> and the start of the WPT final tourney. I haven&#8217;t had a chance to find out from the other LA-area players about how this past weekend went, but I&#8217;m itching to hit the NL tables again, and with the WPT event going on, there&#8217;s sure to be some crazy money sitting on all those tables. Plus I&#8217;d like the chance to size up <a href=\"http:\/\/pokergeek.blogspot.com\/\">the Film Geek<\/a> after <a href=\"http:\/\/pokergeek.blogspot.com\/2005\/02\/3rd-out-of-1773.html\">his phenomenal success<\/a> last week and see if he hasn&#8217;t added a couple inches to his height or a few more teeth to his smile as a result.<\/p>\n<p>So&#8230; anyone up for another Commerce run?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;m on PokerNow with a new screenname and a rake rebate plan, courtesy of PokerSourceOnline.
